The catalogue leaks from a few months ago (which also give us our first looks at the Hogwarts Moments books) came from special retailer catalogues. The owner of the catalogue let some customers take pictures even though he wasn't supposed to and that blew up in his face as those pics found their way online soon after. While I love Kreacher for me that's a reason not to put him on the list. A new headmold isn't just a nice extra detail but 100% necessary so it'll happen anyway

Narcissa would definetely be a good choice as well, she desperately needs a new hairpiece. If they cheap out on her and use an existing one that would be really lame

Designing a LEGO set generally takes 1.5 year so yes, they are most likely already working on them.

Could just be me but wasn't it kinda obvious that they were going to use Jay for something? The 2 sets he's in both show him as captured, Chief Mammatus has lightning on his staff and the names of the minions are lightning related (rumble, thunder) The Keepers using his elemental power for their catamaran is new though.

If the sets leak through a retail catalogue I do hope it doesn't happen too soon. I love knowing what's coming very early on so I can properly plan out my purchases but such a leak would effectively ruin most of the discussions and speculation that make the HP thread so fun. But I guess we'll have to wait and see Kinda curious, if you guys could pick one DH related figure for 2021 you would want LEGO to go all out on who (and what variant) would it be? Definetely wedding Fleur for me

When WW84 got delayed the set was already well into production, same for the Black Widow set. If those 2 sets hadn't entered the production stage yet by the time their respective movies were delayed they would've gotten delayed as well.

BAM stands for Build A Minifigure. They're the stations at the LEGO Brand Stores where you can build 3 figs for a pretty cheap price. They often get exclusive prints etc. HY stands for Half Year. So 1HY is the first half (january - june) and 2HY is the second half (july - december).

Build A Minifigure. They're these stations in LEGO brand stores where you can assemble some figures for a fairly low price that often get exclusive prints. Vidiyo is a music related theme but we're not exactly sure what it is yet.

Not sure if the name is finalised but as of this moment the set is simply called 'Water Dragon'.

I wouldn't count on much info this year. Usually all of the Harry Potter info that comes out before leak season (which starts around late-april / early-may) comes from the Toy Fairs and those have all been either delayed or cancelled. This could be the first year of this theme where we don't get any setnames and have to speculate based on figure leaks only, which should definetely be interesting Unless my source suddenly turns up with a list of setnames ofc

A new pic of Chief Mammatus (who's alternate name is apparently Spider-Man according to this leaker ) has leaked. His helmet thingy looks fantastic!

Some more Eternals merch leaked: - A shirt with Ikaris and Sersi - Better looks at the Marvel Legends figures that leaked a while back (Ikaris, Kingo, Sprite, Druig, Phastos, Sersi and Makkari) Can't wait to see LEGO's take on these characters!

I stand corrected, don't follow BAM all that closely so I'm not even surprised I missed those recolors It'll be interesting to see wether or not we'll get the Second Task this year then, if we do I do hope it's one of the $100+ sets with the Durmstrang ship and ST combined.

Then you'll have to make an account or google it, posting leaks or links to leaks on EB isn't allowed

99% of the time part, set and figure leaks come from Instagram just like this piece.

I highly doubt it's a CMF mold, Series 21 has already been revealed and it's way too soon for a Looney Tunes leak (and I don't think LT even has mermaids to begin with). Looking at the printing I think this is a BAM-exclusive print on a piece that will be introduced in a future 1HY 2021 set. It could be made for the Merpeople but afaik BAM never recolors pieces and brown/nougat/whatever-color-this-is wouldn't be the most accurate for the Merpeople. It's definetely possible, probably even inevitable, that we'll see this mold used in a Second Task set in 2021 or beyond but I don't think this piece hints at anything Potter related in it's current form.

Vehicles have never really been selling points for Harry Potter (bar the Hogwarts Express but even that has it's limits in terms of price) so I personally doubt we'll ever get UCS/Creator Expert-style vehicles for the Potter theme. Especially with locations like Gringotts, the Ministry of Magic and Hogsmeade being better fits for such a pricepoint. But who knows? One can always hope

I must be the only one who prefers the young Han head over the CMF version for Cedric

Would be cool if the Vengestone buyer has a more ambitious plan than the usual one-season villains and will serve as one of the major villians of the 'new' Ninjago. Maybe use the Vengestone to orchestrate a big attack on Kryptarium Prison resulting in a mass breakout the ninja will have to deal with for 2 or 3 seasons (with an overarching story like the Oni trilogy). That would allow the writers to spend more time exploring past villains instead of having to keep retconning more villains into Ninjago's history (and they could properly place the Dark Island books into the show canon). Could also be a nice way of tying new and Legacy content together setswise, like Vengestone versions of previous villain vehicles or something. But I doubt the new Ninjago will ever get that ambitious when they can just keep things relatively simple

D2C's are sets only sold by LEGO themselves (and other retailers eventually but that takes a while). UCS sets are D2Cs most of the time but what makes them different is that they're always Star Wars. Your comment also made me curious as to how many characters we're still missing from the films LEGO covered so I put together this list. Few things to note: films LEGO didn't cover are not included, minions/armies aren't counted, SDCC figures aren't counted, these are just characters so no costumes (although there are many costumes we're obviously dying to get), if a character appears in multiple movies it'll be listed by the first movie he/she appears in that was also covered by LEGO, wether or not a character is on the list depends on how much of a role said character has in the MCU or his/her respective film. Avengers - Erik Selvig, The Other, Agent Sitwell, Stan Lee Iron Man 3 - Harley Keener Guardians of the Galaxy - Korath, The Collector, Kraglin Age of Ultron - Peggy Carter, Heimdall Ant-Man - Hank Pym, Luis, Cassie Lang, Howard Stark Civil War - Helmut Zemo, Thaddeus Ross, Everett Ross, May Parker, Ayo Doctor Strange - Kaecilius Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 - Ego Spider-Man: Homecoming - Liz Toomes, Flash Thompson, Betty Brant, Mr Harington, Tinkerer Thor: Ragnarok - Odin, Skurge/Executioner, Volstagg, Fandral, Hogun, Surtur, Korg, Miek Black Panther - M'Baku, W'Kabi, Queen Ramonda, Zuri Infinity War - Eitri(?) Ant-Man & the Wasp - Janet van Dyne, Jimmy Woo Captain Marvel - Yon Rogg, Supreme Intelligence, Maria Rambeau, Minn-Erva, Att-Lass, Bron-Char, Soren Endgame - Frigga, Jane Foster, Alexander Pierce, Morgan Stark Spider-Man: Far From Home - Brad Davis, Dimitri, J. Jonah Jameson Pretty sure that's most if not all of them.

Just saw the movie as well and besides being genuinely surprised at how much I enjoyed it I'm also surprised the LEGO set managed to cover the movie so well. Really the only bad thing about it is Maxwell Lords faceprint (loved him in the film btw). Cheetahs figure is great but she didn't do much for me in the movie, really meh role. Only other sequence I could see as a set is the desert convoy chase but I doubt that'll happen, would be nice to get a better figure of Max though

Just spitballing here but it wouldn't surprise me if S15 is where we'll be introduced to Vangelis' Vengestone buyer

Thats a 4+ Legacy version of Jay's Electro Mech from Tournament of Elements. Completely different set. EDIT: ninja'd

Can't give you an exact number but it's more than S14

My expectations for this D2C are probably as low as they can possibly be. I wouldn't be surprised at all if this ends up being a set that sits between horrible and meh with only 1 or 2 cool figures everyone's gonna want to get. There's a lot of things they could potentially do (Asgard, Avengers Compound, Wakanda, etc) but they'll most likely pick the least interesting/most disappointing concept and run with it. Reason I picked TDW is because it has by far the most minifigure potential out of any of the Thor movies
